Former Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Mohammed “King Mo†Lawal is expected to sign with both Bellator Fighting Championships and TNA Wrestling in the near future. King Mo is currently serving a nine month suspension from the NSAC and it dealing with health issues related to a previous knee surgery. One could safely assume that when he debuts with Bellator, he will remain a light heavyweight and compete in the light heavyweight tournament. The current and thus far only Bellator Light Heavyweight Champion is Christian M’ Pumbu, who won the inaugural tournament over a year ago.
As far as his potential TNA duties go, current rumors suggest that King Mo would compete in the squared circle when not competing in Bellator. Bellator usually runs two different twelve week “seasons†each year, which would leave King Mo plenty of time to capture TNA gold. Current TNA title holders include Bobby Roode (TNA World Champion), Austin Aries (TNA X Division Champion), Magnus & Samoa Joe (TNA Tag Team Champions), Devon (TNA TV Champion), Gail Kim (TNA Knockouts Champion) and Eric Young & ODB (TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions). No word yet on when King Mo would debut in either promotion, which would be based on his health situation and the nine month suspension.
